Aries Monthly Forecast for March 2010 (If you know your rising sign, read that too, for a balanced forecast. Go to Forecasts)
The Inner World
A Full Moon in Virgo on Feb 28 will roll you into March, focusing on where you are with work or health. Simple changes in diet or routines will solve what seems to be a complex problem. A critical or exacting female will feature. With the Sun in Pisces, and Mercury joining in first up, the inner world is the important arena. Secret doings, creativity or the 'behind the scenes' position will be in the frame. Write the great novel or make the movie, but be scrupulous with communications or arrangements, as the error risk is high.
An unexpected blip with money or love will hit on Mar 3, but Mar 7 brings Venus the goddess to your sign, revving up the action in romantic or fiscal life. Spread it around but don't throw it away. Good ideas won't translate onto the page that easily and restraint or imposed restriction will be the theme on Mar 9. The news is good after that though, for Mar 10 sees Mars finally creak out of reverse and start the slow but accelerating grind in the direction known as forward. Love or money will hit a testing or dramatic phase on Mar 11, when you will deal with an intense or manipulative individual.
Pull in the horns as a New Moon comes in Pisces on Mar 15. You may find yourself tired, or suffering minor health concerns, but the odds are on a new inner resolve about creative or spiritual life. There's a topsy-turvy timbre to the times and you may find it hard to see how things look from the outside. Mar 17 will see Mercury flare in your sign, bringing a confident ring to the Ram's vocal cords or dexterous movement. Be thoughtful, reflective and prepared to listen the next day, as you'll have a decision or situation to consider.
Mar 20 brings the Equinox and the Sun to your sign. Happy Birthday! Watch for argument or accident and alter your style to suit the need of the moment. Push obstacles out of the way with persistence on Mar 22, though you'll have to negotiate your position. Stress levels will rise on Mar 26 and Mar 30 summons the magic of harmony (or otherwise) with a Full Moon in Libra. It's not just about you, so where do you stand with others or they with you? It's back to basic transactions in love or money.
Smart Talk
Mercury slips into Pisces on Mar 1, spicing the inner world with creative or spiritual ramblings and ruminations. Simmer plans or possibilities but don't rush them into action. Teachings or realizations will feature on Mar 8 but you still may go round in circles with communications or arrangements. Mar 17 sets the fire with the messenger in Aries. You'll be ready to express, take action or turn a trick. Navigate cautiously first up as Mercury opposes Saturn on Mar 18 then clashes with Pluto on Mar 20. There'll be hard won or testing decisions, a dust up or a tumble, so pick your way along and negotiate opposition. Keep a lookout on the blindside.
Dressing Up
After 'out of character' or unexpected exchanges (don't be a spendthrift), the goddess will thrust you into bling, personal purchases, treatments or fiery relations, as she slips into your sign on Mar 7. Delay or constraint will hit first up, as will older folk, then you'll set your own social or romantic pace. Watch for excessive heat or burgeoning drama on Mar 11. Pushed or pushy, restraint and control will serve you best. You'll be ready to fall in love and gain or lose a fortune at a moment's notice. Enjoy the inspiration, confine the credit card to barracks and wait for Venus to hit Taurus on Mar 31, getting you back to good sense in love or money.
Finally Forward
At last, you'll get some value from your planetary ruler, warrior Mars, who, with all pomp and ceremony, slips the retrograde leash and starts moving forward on Mar 10. It'll be slow or a bit creaky at first, but you will start to come to grips with romantic or creative activity, children, recreation or lifestyle as the road rolls on. Mar 22 will give you a hand up if you accept help or follow advice. Raise the fires a notch and take aim at something you really want.
